    I said, if this report is true.

    Did you miss the two times I said that?

    But doesn't it go to the narrative that the Patriots are just pathological cheaters? Moral of the story: Don't make ridiculous claims because people will use them later and make you look foolish.

    I don't "believe" anything other than there's not enough information out there to come to the conclusion that anyone on the Patriots did anything wrong.

    You're the one with belief based on suspicion.

    Sorry... I'm not trying to be a jerk about it... I just love that aspect of football.

    I think there is a reason why coaches have never disguised a 5 receiver set, quickly lineup and snap the football before the defense can match up and identify the eligible and ineligible receiver. I think if it wasn't a 5 receiver set it would not have been any issues (receivers in the slot are able to get up field much more quickly and easier than out of the backfield, that is important to note). I think the play worked exactly how it was designed. You guys are more custom to hurry up offense so you don't see the issues in allowing opponent to be able to properly match up.

    It's legal, but I think there is a reason other coaches have never tried the same...

    They also didn't implicate him in the Hernandez murders.

    Also true but just as misleading and irrelevant.

    You know... I can't wait until all of this unravels. There are so many different story lines and I think any NFL fan deserves to know what is going on there.

    There is no information out there to draw any conclusion whatsoever--one way or the other-wrongdoing or no wrongdoing.

    Why be a tool?

    Soxx?

    Fair point. I would agree that the only reason they did it was to deceive. The "LT" was the first option on all of those plays. They were probably at a disadvantage in a few other spots.

    When they drag him up in front of Congress he will take a shit the size of Brady and then give Brady and the Pats up.

    I can't imagine Goodell is dumb enough to believe the ball boy did it on his own. If this report is true it will be impossible for Belichick and Brady not to take the fall.

    If it was the ball boy will Pats fans claim he did it on his own and point to "no evidence" anyone gave him direction?

    NFL: We aren't commenting on the investigation but we will be done in 2-3 days and will release a report at some point after that.

    Actions: Release select information to the media and take at minimum 8 days for the investigation.

    They have matching pill cases, when he goes to take his little blue pill she pops half a dozen valium so she doesn't have to remember it.

    I wouldn't. If they have proof he did it, senior officials / players are involved. I doubt they do have evidence, curious about the video though.
